11/7/15 6-foot, 195-pound right-handed hitter. Hits from a slightly open stance with minimal stride, gets hands to good launch position, and flashes bat speed with some length. Recorded exit velocity was down from previously observed 88-mph and he has room to get more out of his strong lower half with further incorporation of his back side into his swing. Defensively, he recorded 74-mph arm strength and pop times of 2.12-2.28, which could become more consistent if he maintains his quick feet, but gets his front foot more directional toward second base.
7/23/15 Zilka showcased above average barrel whip from a square stance with a high hands load. The 6-foot, 195-pound right-handed hitter initiates his swing with a heel raise stride and uses a strong lower half to create an 88 mph bat exit velocity. Zilka displayed a direct swing path and gets to extension well with some present power.
Still getting back to full health following a hip injury, Zilka showed solid catch and throw skills with pop times of 2.07-2.13 on throws of 73 mph from the crouch.
